What is an AGC file?

AGC files mostly belong to Altair GraphQL Client. AGC files are used in different ways. The main use is as a JSON file that holds an Adobe XD graphic. It is managed by the Altair GraphQL Client and stores design data.

Some AGC files contain Apollo Guidance Computer source code. These files are part of historical software projects and are used with tools like VirtualAGC (Apollo source).

A few AGC files use XML to hold Google Camera configuration. They keep camera tuning settings for systems like Snapdragon Camera (Camera tuning info).

FilExt.com note: These files are plain text and can be checked with a text editor or a program that supports JSON or XML formats.

AGC file format:

A file format defines how the data in the file is structured. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK.
